I am open-minded, creative, and adventurous.
My Self-Summary
I'm a fun-loving free spirit and
music lover who values her passions and
dreams over money and stability...although living paycheck to
paycheck isn't my first choice either ;) I drive a jeep
(standard)...I enjoy making music as much as going to
shows - indie rock (for lack
of a better term) is my favorite. I'm a girl of all seasons - I
enjoy
camping,
hiking and
snowboarding.
Love being physical -
running,
yoga. Dining and
red wine. I enjoy
cooking and
entertaining for friends...and
endless drinks with friends. Things I want to do someday:
travel to Australia, make a
real album. Things I've dreamed about doing since I was a kid: fly
a plane, help the unfortunate. I'm big on
culture,
adventure,
education and living life to the
fullest.
What I’m doing with my life
doing my best to enjoy it! I work in radio and also juggle various
extra gigs on the side (webcasting, marketing, event planning,
music and acting). I am striving to put a band together. I love
seeing other places, be it on a weekend getaway a mere few hours
from my house or half-way across the world. Two of the best weeks
of my life were spent traveling through Europe and I am planning on
visiting Korea next year. My friends and family mean the most to
me...so the highlights of my life are good times with them. I
suppose I suffer from the college-minded ideal to make a difference
in this world...what exactly that may be...I am still trying to
figure out...I try to read as much as I can, as it stimulates the
mind...
I’m really good at
listening, maintaining my focus and going after what I want,
letting things go when necessary , not taking things too seriously,
multi-tasking, engaging in ridiculously long conversations about
music, playing music (or trying), singing (I was once a voice
major), snow-boarding (ok, well, intermediate), cooking, gardening,
yoga (again, intermediate), BBQing, mixing a mean cocktail...
The first things people usually notice about me
my laugh, my hair, that I'm easy-going, a good sense of humor, that
I'm responsible but don't take things too seriously, a strange
ability to function off of little sleep, my habit of singing a lot,
a slight sarcasm (that I think is obviously sarcasm) that people
often take seriously when they first meet me...

The six things I could never do without
music, my health, my friends & family, my freedom, the beach, a
good glass of wine
I spend a lot of time thinking about
whether I'm living the life that I should (I usually think so, but
it's only human to have doubts), those I care about who are going
through tough times, the tribulations that I have been through in
the past and what their significance is
On a typical Friday night I am
out and about with friends, catching live music somewhere
perhaps...
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
it takes a lot for someone to do it for me...but once they do, I
can fall hard...
You should message me if
you are passionate about life and want to get together to see if we
click...and are looking for sometime to have fun with...that could
hopefully lead to more ;)
